Valentine's Day Robots


Are you looking for a fun craft idea for the kids? My girls made these to give to their friends on Valentine's Day. They used white duck tape for the eyes and got pretty creative with the expressions. You could use googly eyes, but we didn't have any on hand. The mouth is drawn with a red sharpie.

They chose Reese's Peanut Butter hearts for the front, but if you have someone who is allergic to nuts, you can easily find chocolate hearts without the peanut butter.

The Valentine's Day Robots were assembled with a hot glue gun. It only takes a small dab of hot glue to attach the arms and we found it works best if you glue the arms pointing upwards, then when you turn your juice box around, the arms hang a little away from the body.

Here the girls used pudding cups, but you could easily substitute applesauce for a healthier version. If you're giving these as class treats, you might want to attach a wrapped plastic spoon to the back of the robot.

Have fun!
